Teeth Cleaning Prevents Decay and Gum Disease

Bacteria in plaque cause tooth decay and gum disease. These bacteria trigger your immune system to produce toxins that damage tissues, bone, and ligaments supporting your teeth.

Gum disease begins as gingivitis, with tender, red, swollen gums that bleed when brushing or flossing. If untreated, it progresses to periodontitis, creating deep pockets between teeth and gums where plaque and debris build up, leading to further infection.

Untreated periodontitis can damage bone and ligaments, loosening teeth and eventually causing tooth loss. Regular cleanings help detect gum disease early, allowing for prompt treatment and preventing invasive procedures like scaling and root planing.
